COMPENSATION IN CONTEXT
ISS SEEKS INPUT: ANNUAL POLICY SURVEY
August 17, 2015
In July 2015, ISS kicked off its annual global policy formulation process by inviting institutional investors, corporate issuers, corporate directors and various other governance market constituents to participate in its 2016 proxy voting policy survey.
This year the survey will cover a number of key issues for consideration as part of the policy updates for 2016, including the use of equity compensation for non-executive directors, proxy access in the U.S., overboarding for directors and CEOs, and the role of share buybacks in the effective allocation of capital.
In addition to this global survey, ISS will conduct a variety of regionally-based, topic-specific roundtables and conference calls to examine local market best practices and gather input that will factor into the development of ISS’ benchmark policy guidelines globally.
After analysis and consideration of the survey responses, ISS will later open a comment period for all interested market participants on the final proposed changes to our policies for 2016. The open comment period is designed to elicit objective, specific feedback from investors, corporations and other industry constituents on the practical implementation of proposed policy updates as well as new policies.
